I feel really proud of myself for what I’ve accomplished during this rotation. I was given significant responsibilities that, at times, felt stressful, but I’m proud that I managed these challenges well and delivered on what was asked of me. I pushed myself to stay resilient and focused, ensuring that my work remained on track. I think I behaved very well in this situation and I was very transparent and open.
LIGHTSPRAY
One of the highlights of this rotation was my involvement in the LightSpray SOP document creation. I embraced the challenge by asking questions to fully understand the process and proactively engaging with a wide group of new colleagues. This experience allowed me to demonstrate my willingness to explore new areas and contribute where needed.

Bringing Tradition into Innovation
with this project, Our mission was to inspire Design and Development by offering a fresh perspective on how traditional construction techniques can be reimagined for modern footwear. These methods are not just relics of the past but versatile, innovative solutions to today’s construction challenges.
To illustrate this, we presented a curated collection of physical samples based on the original Cloud5 concept, alongside construction overview slides. This collection includes a range of time-honored techniques: Moccasin, Direct Moulded, San Crispino, Californian, Sahara Sandal, Board Lasted, Veldtschoen, Blake Sewn, Polyveldt, Side-wall Stitch, and Stitch & Turn.
Additionally, a series of pullovers has been designed to showcase these diverse construction methods, demonstrating how they can be translated into contemporary designs—bridging the gap between heritage craftsmanship and future innovation.
THESE FOLLOWING PICS ARE PART OF THE DECK THAT WE BUILT AND PRESENTED TO THE R&D WITH ALL OF OUR FINDINGS:
AND FINALLY, SOME of the maaaany PROTOS :)
high boot high tech
I successfully delivered the end results of my projects where i had to explore the "closing systems in high boots" and presented my work confidently at the Emerging concept exhibition. This was a huge thing for me and I also saw myself improve on presenting in front of people. I am very happy that my team pushed me on this one, I really needed it and I feel like I gained more confidence.
